[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#794438: Partition manager does not launch

[Herminio Hernandez Jr]

Package: partitionmanager
Version: 1.0.3-2.1
Followup-For: Bug #794438

Dear Maintainer,

I am also see that partionmanager is failing to launch.

   * What led up to the situation?

I upgraded from stretch to sid and then installed partitionmanager.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

When I tried to launch partionmanger I did not even see it appear in either
krunner or app launcher. I then ran it in konsole as root and recieved the
following

root at KDE-Gazelle:/home/rican-linux# partitionmanager
partitionmanager(3762)/kdeui (kdelibs): Session bus not found
To circumvent this problem try the following command (with Linux and bash)
export $(dbus-launch)
KCrash: Application 'partitionmanager-bin' crashing...
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi from kdeinit
KCrash: Connect sock_file=/root/.kde/socket-KDE-Gazelle/kdeinit4__0
Warning: connect() failed: : No such file or directory
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/drkonqi directly
drkonqi(3765)/kdeui (kdelibs): Session bus not found
To circumvent this problem try the following command (with Linux and bash)
export $(dbus-launch)
Unable to start Dr. Konqi
Not forwarding the crash to Apport.

I then ran the command export $(dbus-launch). It ran the application but I
could not reformat my usb drive. I saw the following in konsole

root at KDE-Gazelle:/home/rican-linux# export $(dbus-launch)
